Description

Hillsleigh is a house, possibly originally part of the adjacent No 156, dating from the mid to late 18th century. It features a front made of ashlar stone and has a hipped Cotswold stone roof. The building has a flat string course for the cornice and a parapet. It stands three storeys high and has one window with glazing-bar sashes. On the first floor, there is a wide angled bay with a dentil cornice. The ground floor has a rectangular bay with two pairs of glazing-bar Yorkshire sashes at the front, and the dentilled cornice extends to the right, forming a porch over a six-panel door with traceried transom lights. At the rear, the house is constructed of rubble stone, with a hipped roof that projects from the building line, suggesting it may have once been a solar wing of a hall house on the site of the current No 156.
